World Ozone Day is celebrated every year on 16th September as an International Day for the preservation of Ozone layer. Around 36 years back, the great minds across the world started thinking how to heal the Ozone layer which were shocked to find a hole in it. See how they worked together to bring a difference…

What is Ozone Layer and its importance

We all know that life on this earth would not have been possible without sunlight but its energy emerging from the sun is very strong for us to bear it and it is only possible because of the ozone layer that we can survive on this planet and get the right amount of sunlight while being shielded from its harmful effects. The ozone is a fragile sheet of gas that protects earth from the harmful UV rays. The presence of Ozone layer is very important for the humankind on Earth. 

World Ozone Day History

Back in 1970s when some scientists were working on ozone layer, they found out that the humanity is creating a big hole in this protective shield that can destroy our planet in near future. They informed the whole world about this issue. The hole was caused because of the excessive pollution on Earth, and because of the ozone depleting gases such as (CFCs) and (HFCs) used in air conditioners and refrigerators. The humanity was well informed about the threats that this hole can cause; the less protection from ozone layer can cause skin cancer , cataract and damage in the ecosystem. 

 World Ozone Day: Montreal Protocol

The Montreal Protocol was a global agreement which started for the protection of ozone layer and is in run today too. It has done a wonderful job for the protection of humanity and became the most successful global agreement till date. Montreal Protocol came into existence with an aim to protect the ozone layer by controlling total global production and consumption of substances that deplete it. And a big thanks to this protocol that the ozone layer is healing.

World Ozone Day: Vienna Convention:

In 1985, the world’s government adopted Vienna Convention for the protection of Ozone layer under the Montreal Protocol. Convention protocol was adopted and signed by 28 countries, on 22 March 1985. In September 1987, under the Convention’s Montreal Protocol, governments, scientists and industry worked together to cut out 99 per cent of all ozone-depleting substances. 

This year, we are celebrating the 36th successful year of the achievements by the Montreal Protocol  and Vienna convention. And the very existence of celebration September 16th as World Ozone Day was to celebrate these achievements. This day reminds the humankind the importance of Ozone layer and how important it is to protect it at all cost.

A Very Happy World Ozone Day!

Hybodont Shark, a new specie of Jurassic era discovered from Jaisalmer in Rajasthan.

In a rare discovery, teeth of new species of hybodontshark  of Jurassic age have been reported for the first time from Jaisalmer by a team of officers comprising  Krishna Kumar,Pragya Pandey, Triparna Ghosh and Debasish Bhattacharya from the Geological Survey of India (GSI), Western Region, Jaipur.

This finding has been published in Historical Biology, a Journal of Palaeontology of International repute, in its August, 2021, 4th issue. Prof. Dr. Sunil Bajpai, Head of the Department, Department of Earth Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee, who is a co-author of this publication, played a significant role in the identification and documentation of this important discovery.

According to Krishna Kumar, Senior Geologist, Palaeontology division, Western Region, “Hybodont sharks have been reported for the first time from the Jurassic rocks (approximately, between 160 and 168 million-years-old) of the Jaisalmer region of Rajasthan. Hybodonts, an extinct group of sharks, was a dominant group of fishes in both marine and fluvial environments during the Triassic and early Jurassic time. However, Hybodont Sharks started to decline in marine environments from the Middle Jurassic onwards until they formed a relatively minor component of open-marine shark assemblages. Hybodonts finally became extinct at the end of the Cretaceous time 65 million years ago.

Significantly, the newly discovered crushing teeth from Jaisalmer represent a new species named by the research team as Strophodusjaisalmerensis. The genus Strophodus has been identified for the first time from the Indian subcontinent and is only the third such record from Asia, the other two being from Japan and Thailand. The new species has recently been included in the Shark references.com, an international platform operating in association with International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Species Survival Commission (SSC), and Germany.

This discovery marks an important milestone in the study of Jurassic vertebrate fossils in the Jaisalmer region of Rajasthan, and it opens a new window for further research in the domain of vertebrate fossils.

Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh was known as Aryab Peshwa who was known asa freedom fighter, revolutionary, writer, journalist and a social reformer.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone of Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh State University in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, to commemorate the Jat figure two years after the UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath promised to construct a university in his name.

Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh History

Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh, popularly known as “Aryan Peshwa”, was born in 1886 in UP’s Hathras, in the ruling Jat family of the princely state of Mursan. Coming from a royal family, he was actively involved in politics from a young age. He was a freedom fighter, revolutionary, writer, journalist, social reformer, and internationalist who entered Lok Sabha as an Independent candidate from Mathura in 1957.

Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh Education 

He received his education from Muhammadan Anglo-Oriental Collegiate School, now known as Aligarh Muslim University, and donated 1.221 hectares of land in 1929 to the university. In 2019, BJP and RSS leaders demanded that AMU should be renamed after him. 

The Raja was involved in the Swadeshi movement, and established a “Provisional Government of India” in Kabul in the middle of World War I in 1915, declaring himself as the President. He was a firm believer of Gandhi’s policy of non-violence and was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1932. 

“He was not a political figure. He was more of a reformer who promoted education. He gave his own residence to establish the first technical school of the country. He was well versed in eight different languages, he practised different religions, he founded the world federation, he was nominated for the Nobel Prize, he set up a Provisional Government of India in Afghanistan, but still, very few know about him,” said Charat Pratap Singh, the great grandson of Mahendra Pratap.

We will again see Ankita Lokhande playing her most loved character Archana on the platform while this time the character of Manav is played by none other than Shaheer Sheikh. 

Shaheer Sheikh is a versatile actor, who can step in the shoes of any character with much ease. He has portrayed some very good characters and has given hit soaps, his role in Mahabharata as Arjuna was highly praised, his role as Dev Dixit in kuch rang pyaar ke aise bhi was very loved and appreciated by fans that they demanded for more seasons of the show. While Ankita Lokhande earned her fame through Pavitra Rishta only and was the highest paid television actor but after 2018 she striked for working in movies. She worked as supporting actor in Manikarnika and Baaghi 3.

And ever since the announcement of Pavitra Rishta 2.0 , the whole cast is being trolled and abused on social media especially Ankita Lokhande as back in those Pavitra Rishta days she was dating Sushant Singh Rajput. Few Sushant Singh fans are a little upset with the fact that they are recreating the legacy of Late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, they don’t want to see anyone else playing Mavan which was a iconic character of Sushant.

Ankita reacted on the online trolling and said “In a way, I’m just trying to keep him alive,” with Pavitra Rishta 2″. 

 The 1st season of Pavitra Rishta dropped last night and netizens are showering love , watching the sequences again.

The lead actors are being praised for their natural acting while some negativity is still going on social media. Shaheer Sheikh taking such a big responsibility on his shoulders has yet again proved the audience that he is an ace in the drama world.
